At least 41% of marriages have dealt with fidelity issues at some point. Just because it doesnt always lead to divorce doesnt mean it isnt prevalent and destroying marriages.
Just because money is the number one cause doesnt lessen the severity of infidelity. It also doesnt discount the pp who had a valid point.

First of all I agree that opening up to some one close in a relationship can help heal past emotional wounds, so a women should consider herself lucky if she has a husband who listens and understands her trauma.
A girl who has been sexually abused as a child/teen has been scarred for life but scars do heal with time as time is the greatest healer.
One who has been sexually abused has had a bad sex experience without her/his consent.
A bad experience in life has to fade away from memory to make space for new memories that should stay forever.
A gentle, pleasant , sensual love making between a woman and her man can be relived in a mind of a woman to cherish such good memories.
She can specifically ask a man politely what she does not like to be done to her body. (Only a fool will go against her wishes and disrespect her)
As VallGal says "no sex at all is terrible for a marriage and will come between them....resentments build, etc."
That's very true for couple who have negligible amount of sex or sex just for formality can ring death knell for their marriage/relationship.
More and more Divorces and Promiscuity arise due to distancing between couples who fail to communicate and stay together.
More over such recreational activities will help to procreate.
So the other day I was hanging out with my newly wed cousin sister and we were there surrounded by our common friends.
My cousin sister confessed that being new in wedlock was cool and fun and she was enjoying the wedding bliss.
She said that her husband was demanding her sex many times more when they holidays on weekends.
So the question is: Do Wives Always Have to Say Yes to Sex?
I find your post to self contradictory. If she has right of refusal, he has no right to feel rejected. (And vice versa)No...absolutely not.
If a woman says no to sex...which she has every right to do...it doesn't justify a man cheating on her. That said...
Repeatedly rejecting a partner will almost certainly lead to feelings of rejection, often resentment, damage to confidence, etc. I'm not saying that rejecting a man once...or even twice...will necessarily cause this (it can...but it shouldn't) but if a woman repeatedly rejects a man, I don't think it's unrealistic to expect there to be damage.
It's a powerful kind of rejection, which isn't like other kinds of rejection.

Read it again. Ana spoke of the right of refusal, but also reminds people that doing this habitually will damage the relationship. This is pretty common sense stuff here.
I mean that is why refusal is brought up to begin with. The cause and effect of it.
You will always have some that take it legalistically - and claim you can never do it. It's against scripture, and completely miss the spirit of what is said. Remember its not meant to be used as a weapon or a matter of coercion. Respect and love doesn't thrive under those circumstances.
Most people should be able to discern the spirit of what is being said, and use a bit of common sense as well. It wasn't meant as a power structure deal. When people try to use it has such? It out of selfishness, and the common sense meaning that should dawn on the majority is completely lost.
There is a huge difference between an occasion NO, and NO being the answer all the time. Everyone knows that.
Only if they are ruled by their emotions. We are commanded to take every thought captive (and that includes emotions) to the obedience of Christ.Huh? Emotions aren't based upon rights...people will feel how they feel.
Does a person have a "right" to refusal? Of course. But there is no right to feel bad about it.Read it again. Ana spoke of the right of refusal, but also reminds people that doing this habitually will damage the relationship. This is pretty common sense stuff here.

The bible talks about husbands making sure their wives are satisfied in both testaments, but other than a couple of verses in 1 Cor 7, makes no statement the other way around.
Not irrational, just unbiblical.Feeling a bit of rejection if one is repeatedly refused sex is I don’t think irrational.
Not being rejected, just feeling rejected., if you feel that being rejected is unbiblical... Which I don't.
Personally, I'd leave such a nutty church. Denial of human sexuality is one of the reasons I'll leave a church.There were guys that were lauded from the pulpit for not having wet dreams any more.
They had guys come around and question us regularly (at least us guys) about whether we had sexual feelings or had masturbated since the last meeting. If we answered yes to either we went thru that program. (Never helped me much)
Not being rejected, just feeling rejected.
Matthew 5:11
“Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me.
Don't feel rejected, feel blessed.
